This was big boy basketball. Physical game on both ends. Well played. Both teams didn’t play well at times but probably due to the defense of the other. Looked like a tourney game minus Lou!

Its going to take a total team effort. Harvest will come in as the big favorite. They better not leave us in the game late! This Dragon team knows how to finish games. Good luck Coach Speed and the Dragons!

I know it sounds elementary but the team that makes "shots" wins. What I mean by this is the shooting background at the Convo is completely different than any that either team plays on during regular season play. Both teams have plenty of experience in big games but this one is huge. Add t...

Fairland returns most of their lineup from last year. Should be pretty good.

South Point has a shot if they can take care of the ball. Fairland got very "ME" oriented last week against Westfall. Backdoor stuff was there all night and they didnt take advantage of it like they usually do. It is always tough to beat a team 3 times but I think it happens here. Fairland...

Webb at sp till his injury cost him games

Any napkin stats on the game pfloyd?

Last nights game was intense! Both teams came to play. I felt the key was Fairland dominating the boards. Neither team is real big, but Fairland got all of the 50/50 boards. Williams was a beast. Rematch should be a good one as well. I look for the Peake to not lose another one up to that game. I ha...

Fairland had a nice win last night over Huntington High (AAA in Wva. D1 ohio). Dragons took control in the 2nd quarter and rolled to the victory.

Huntington is loaded. Very strong athletic team that has been hampered by long playoff runs in football over the last few years. Didn't happen this year so they have been in the gym for a while. Archer from Chesapeake transferred there as well.

Mild strain in ankle. Should be fine!

WOW! Nasty Schedule! Play better competition to get better!

Great venue from what I've been told!

8 quality pitchers? Most high school teams have 3-4 varsity kids that can legit pitch. 3-4 more on the JV squad. What I am saying is that if a team gets behind early, we are seeing coaches pull varsity pitching to save for a later game and using inexperienced Jv kids to finish. It is happening! Ive ...

I do have a clue Gold Blood. I won't go into my background but I do. All I'm saying is the game is already on a downturn. I know the reasoning but I do not feel like amount of pitches is a good gauge. Tommy John surgery or the injury that causes the surgery was not real prevalent until you started s...

I heard Barrick interviewed earlier this week. Don't know if that is true but source is usually spot on.

I feel that the pitch count rule is killing the high school game of baseball. I understand the reasoning behind it (pitcher arm safety), but putting inexperienced kids on the mound 60 ft from a missile fired back at them isn't safe either. Some of the games I have seen this year are boring after a c...

What other games did you think they would win?

Well none against Gallia to start with. I had them splitting with SP, 2 with rock hill, split with Peake and Coal Grove, and Portsmouth sweep. Thought they could contend with Webster and Ironton (H). Didn't think they would win any other non-conference game. Man they overachieved! What was your pres...

I'll just respond by saying that what a great surprise to EVERYONE that this group achieved this! No one would have predicted this! Congrats to Coach Speed and crew for an awesome season!
